研究目的
To review the primary standard Free-air ionization chamber correction factor experimental method and Monte Carlo simulation method in the NIM and to obtain the correction factor for the medium-energy X-ray primary standard free-air ionization chamber at 100 kV, 135 kV, 180 kV, 250 kV four CCRI reference qualities.
研究成果
The study successfully calculates the correction factors for the medium-energy X-ray free-air ionization chamber using both experimental and Monte Carlo simulation methods. The results are in good agreement with previous studies, demonstrating the reliability of the methods used. The correction factors and their associated uncertainties are provided, offering theoretical and data support for air-kerma international comparisons.
研究不足
The study acknowledges the influence of air density changes due to humidity on the air-kerma measurements and the potential for field distortion within the ionization chamber, which are corrected using international recommendations and experimental results, respectively.
